| We are trying to find a proper way to resolve these questions, MobileMate project is just a usecase demo. It uses the [[http://www.tinycorelinux.net/|TinyCore Linux]] as a tiny portable Linux platform, use Bash to glue some open source tools such as MPlayer, FFmpeg(Libav), Zenity, Grep, Sed, etc., then we got a portable, self-booting appliance tool for video/audio converting. End user can run it in the virtual machine, install and running in USB, HD, MicroSD, CD, etc.. | We are trying to find a proper way to resolve these questions, MobileMate project is just a usecase demo.

| - | MobileMate project is trying to find a proper way for the personal mainly to start our tiny business based on the open source way. Our idea is: when the customer raise a special reqirement that common existed application can't meet his needs, e.g., a user need burn thounds of low resolution video into DVDs and every DVD disk include about 20 hours' video, common DVD burner seems have the max duration limitation, but for the low resolution source video, a DVD disk only include several hours duration is wasting. And, common DVD burner need user to process every DVD disk burning manually, so, it needs so long time to finish his work. But, we can use Bash to glue ImageMagick, MPlayer, FFmpeg, Dvdauthor, Mkisofs, Growisofs, etc. to convert and burn into DVD images automatically and one click to burn image onto real DVD disk. This saves customer's time and energy. Of course, there are certain some customers prefer to pay some money in exchange for making his life ease. | ||
